He's never had a problem in 19 years but admits he could be doing it wrong. Don't blame the players though, blame Nigel, boo him, it was him that signed these players that are not good enough. Oh, he's also got no idea how to change things but they will keep trying, 17 games left starting with Villa Saturday. Was really inspiring stuff after losing 10 of the last 11 at home. Lets see how we cope with losing week in week out if we get promoted. It didn't take long last time for the club to start cracking under the pressure.

ronnieronalde Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 First ti e I've had the chance to listen to the reading interview. Must say I was expecting something totally different. I thought the lad asked some fair enough questions and Nigel gave some fair enough answers. yes it got a bit spiky in parts but nothing overstepping the mark from either side really. maybe the lad asking the questions laboured the point a couple of times by overall nothing too pushy. nc is always going to be narky after a loss but I thought his answers were fairly reasonable and honest again. seems there's two sides of the fence again. Me and my 'blind faith defence' of NC and those who look for any reason to have a pop. thankfully there's a couple of middle grounders around to keep the balance eh?

Brammie Steve Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 10 hours ago, Alpha said: I don't really get why some Rams dislike Nigel. I've always admired Nigel as a player. (Who did he play for again?)? As a manager he never seems to have been at a club that had much money for players. He set Burton Albion on course for heights which even their most loyal supporters could never have dreamed they could reach. His dad was always a bit of a character and still casts a massive shadow over him. Towards the end of his tenure with the Rams I disliked the way he would sit slumped in his chair regardless of what was happening on the pitch. He exhibited a 'couldn't care less' attitude which would dishearten the keenest of players. I like Nigel still and so, I reckon, do lots of Rams fans. But then again I remember Tommy Docherty and John Gregory being in charge. Not to mention Nigel Pearson, which I won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
